(Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director: Shuhei Kambayashi, https://new-one.co.jp/), which promotes the creation of "highly recommendable workplaces" through organizational development and human resource development consulting focused on improving engagement, will hold a session titled "Health and Productivity Management in the Era of Human Capital - To what extent should HR be involved in employee health?" as NEWONE TALK Vol.10, starting at 11:00 am on Wednesday, April 22, 2026.
Welcoming Mr. Daisuke Konoike, Representative Director, President & CEO of Healthcare Technologies Corp. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director, President & CEO: Daisuke Konoike, https://healthcare-tech.co.jp/about/) as a guest, the session will delve into the multifaceted ideal of "Health and Productivity Management" from the perspective of human capital management, discussing the utilization of health data and changes in corporate roles.
## Background of the Event
In Japan, where the working population is rapidly declining due to the falling birthrate and aging population, how to support a state where employees can "continue to work" has become an urgent issue for companies.
In the past, health management was often discussed in the context of employee benefits and optimizing medical expenses. Recently, however, with growing interest in human capital management, the positioning of employee health has shifted to being treated as "capital that generates corporate value," something that should be managed strategically.
On the other hand, the issue of how far companies should step into the sensitive area of health information has also become apparent.
Based on this background, this seminar will explore the future ideal of health management, starting from the question, "To what extent should HR be involved in employee health?"
## Recommended for the following people:
- Those who want to sort out how much HR should be involved in employee health.
- Those who want to link health to corporate value enhancement from the perspective of human capital management.
- Those who want to know the latest trends in health-tech companies and cases of data utilization.
- Those who want to think about building an organization where employees can continue to work.
